The Day has finally come. 780 kilometers are behind me and I am standing at the front of this beautiful Cathedral ( Which is covered in scaffolding as they repair the front of it).
We went to the Pilgrims Mass at Noon, and I was able to receive my certificate for 780 kilometers. It was very exciting and emotional. I did it!!!
I talked to Leischen later in the day and asked if she had started being a tourist yet. She said that she didn't have time yet but - She did seal up all her hiking clothes.. she was done with those for the rest of the trip. She had gotten her train ticket to Madrid for later this week and had gone to the church of St. Francis for a special certificate for pilgrims that is only available this year. She then went off to have drinks with friends and said hello to the other pilgrims she knew.
It was a fun night. You get to be reunited with all the people you have traveled with.
Gretchen - Congratulations Leischen
